“What Day Is…” Feature Compared

This morning I couldn’t for the life of me remember when Mother’s Day was, so I decided to ask a search engine, and then it just snowballed from there. First, Google. You can ask the “what day is…” question of Google up to a point:

Yahoo had no instant answers for any of the “what day is…” queries I threw at it, but they did very kindly correct my spelling and punctuation. MSN and AOL did the same thing, and since A9 is now powered by Windows Live their results were the same as MSN Search.

It would be nice to see this feature expanded to include all sorts of holidays, including international and/or lesser-known special days, such as Secretary Day, Speak Like a Pirate Day, or Take a Nap Day, which I believe might be coming up very soon.
